Your Proposal
your proposal
caught me by surprise
a rapid disposal
easy to surmise
a sealed envelope
fancily letterized
with only my name
on the out side
with no way to avoid
the tearing the seal
i removed the letter
while you were starring and still
and read the content
the moment well spent
giving emotions to feelings rarely lent
emotions are things
in which we have no control
but you handled my emotion
quite well being so bold
a poem well written
from deep in the heart
my emotions were smitten
what to say
i don't know where to start
so i'll just wrap my arms around you
and hold you real tight
let this be my love
with all my might
try not to smother
or put out the light
but hold you in my arms
until my love comes in sight
i'll make you part of me
where love only grows
a part of me that no matter what
you can come and hold
because that's what your proposal did
when it wrapped around my heart
it gave my life new meaning
and a brand new start
